Verizon forces Microsoft Bing search on BlackBerry users
by The PocketBerry Team
Traditionally, we were able to choose between Dictionary.com, Google.com, and Wikipedia. Recently Verizon BlackBerry users went through some crazy changes over night where nothing but Microsoft Bing search was available on the Go to home screen of the BlackBerry Browser. But it hasn’t affected everyone just yet. Currently, I’m rockin’ the 9700 (AT&T), Curve 8530 (Verizon), and Storm2 (Verizon). The Curve 8530 has went ahead and transformed to Bing exclusively, but my Storm2 remains to have all of the usual: Google, Live Search, Wikipedia, and Dictionary.com. Maybe it will be a matter of time until it happens by updating on its own. How many of you are affected?
UPDATE: I just realized that the BlackBerry Curve 8530 comes stock with the Bing app along with Bing search default on the Go To page.
